Answer 2

Answer:

He can make 8 ballons in 6 minutes, and 60 ballons in 45 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, we can use the "simple rule of three", a method of having three numbers to help calculate the unknown.

So, lets begin:

If the clown can make 20 animal ballons every 15 minutes, how many can make in 6 minutes?

20 ballons - 15 minutes

     x        -   6 minutes

$x=\frac{6*20}{15} =8 ballones$

In the same way, if the clown can make 20 animal ballons every 15 minutes, how many can make in  45 minutes?

20 ballons - 15 minutes

     y           -  45 minutes

$y=\frac{45*20}{15}  = 60 ballons$
